Superstitions, explained

For the record, and for the search engines: none of this is real, and that is genuinely good news.

Where does the broken mirror seven years bad luck superstition come from? +

It is an old belief, often traced to the Romans, that a mirror holds a piece of your soul and breaking it harms it for seven years, the time once thought to renew the self. There is no evidence it does anything except cost you a mirror.

Why are black cats considered unlucky? +

It is a medieval European association linking black cats with witchcraft. In plenty of other places, including parts of Britain and Japan, a black cat is considered good luck. The cat, notably, does not care either way.

Does touching wood actually work? +

There is no evidence it changes outcomes. It is a comforting ritual that can ease anxiety, which is a real benefit, just not a supernatural one. Touch all the wood you like.

Are superstitions real? +

No, but they are powerful. Believing in one can genuinely affect how you feel and behave, which is why they persist. The luck itself is not real, and the Tuesday was just a Tuesday.
